Review
Praise for A Philosophical Investigation
"One of the more imaginative thrillers in quite a while...Combines teleological speculations with nitty-gritty futuristic police work."--Wall Street Journal "A truly intellectual thriller that makes the brain cells as well as the hairs on the back of the neck tingle."--GQ "The brainest thriller to come along in years...raising questions about knowledge, proof, and reality in unnervingly dramatic contexts."--Kirkus ReviewsAbout the Author
Philip Kerr is the New York Times bestselling author of the acclaimed Bernie Gunther novels, two of which--Field Gray and The Lady from Zagreb--were finalists for the Edgar(R) Award for Best Novel. Kerr has also won several Shamus Awards and the British Crime Writers' Association Ellis Peters Award for Historical Crime Fiction. As P. B. Kerr, he is the author of the much-loved young adult fantasy series Children of the Lamp.
